Gianni Rodari’s Telephone Tales never loses its charm or relevance. The book tells of the most astonishing events and characters as if they were the most ordinary things—Giovannino the Wanderer’s journeys to unknown lands, the incredible adventures of Little Alice, castles made of ice cream, and perfectly paved chocolate roads.
With his lighthearted and witty humor, Rodari masterfully transforms life’s most serious issues into whimsical, imaginative tales, making them both thought-provoking and delightful.
